Book read this week: Memoirs of a Geisha

Favorite Sentences of the week:
"'We can't waste our time thinking about such things,' she said. 'Nothing is bleaker than the future, except perhaps the past.'"

This is what we Japanese called the 'onion life'-peeling away a layer at a time and crying all the while.

"You must take him out onto the street and walk him around a bit to wake him up. The cold will do him good." "He's lying in the snow. Isn't that cold enough?"

Whatever our struggles and triumphs, however we may suffer them, all too soon they bleed into a wash, just like watery ink on paper.

All from Memoirs of a Geisha by: Arthur Golden.
